Terms, in plain language.

1. About these terms

Design Details runs this website and its related services, including the newsletter, design files, and the design MCP for AI agents. By using any of them, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Design Details is an editorial reference gallery. It collects publicly available websites so people can study their layout, typography, colour, and motion.

2. Who owns what

Everything shown from a featured website belongs to its original owner, not to Design Details. This includes the websites themselves, their screenshots and recordings, images, photography, illustrations, icons, logos, trademarks, written copy, code, and motion.

Typefaces and fonts belong to their designers and type foundries. When we name a font or a foundry, we do it only to describe what a website uses. We do not supply font files, and naming a font does not give you a licence to use it. To use a typeface, license it from its foundry or official distributor.

Featuring a website, font, or foundry does not mean we are connected to it, endorsed by it, or endorse it. Every reference links back to the original website.

3. Nothing here is for sale

We do not sell, license, or give away any featured website, image, font, or other material. Nothing on Design Details grants you any right to use someone else’s work. If you want to use something you find here, ask its owner for permission.

4. Using the site

You may browse, save, and share links to Design Details for personal study and for your own design work. Please use what you see as inspiration and create original work.

You may not:

• copy or rebuild a featured website, or present someone else’s design, copy, images, or brand as your own;
• bulk download, scrape, or republish the gallery, or use it to build a competing collection;
• remove or hide the credit and link to the original website;
• overload, break, or get around the limits of the site or the design MCP;
• use the site for anything unlawful or to infringe anyone’s rights.

5. Design files and AI agents

Design files and design MCP answers describe how a website is put together: its structure, colours, type, and spacing. They are notes for reference, not copies of the website, and they carry the same rule as the rest of the site: create something original.

Some descriptions are written or labelled with the help of AI and can be wrong. Check anything important for yourself. We may limit, change, or stop the design MCP and design files at any time, and may block use that breaks these terms.

6. Our own content

The Design Details name and logo, the site’s design, our selection and arrangement of references, and the descriptions and articles we write belong to Design Details. You may quote short parts with a link back. Logos and images in our press kit may be used to write about Design Details.

7. Suggestions

When you suggest a website, you confirm that the details you send are accurate and that you are allowed to share them. A suggestion does not guarantee that a website will be featured. How we handle the details you send is explained in our privacy policy.

8. Sponsors and partner links

Some links on the site and in the newsletter are sponsored or affiliate links, and Design Details may earn a fee when you use them. Sponsorship is agreed separately in writing and never guarantees a feature or changes how a website is selected.

9. Removal and correction requests

If you own or represent a featured website, font, or foundry and want a credit corrected or material removed, email us with the page link and enough information to confirm the request. We review valid requests promptly.

10. No guarantees

Design Details is provided as it is and as available. We do not promise that it will always be online, free of errors, or accurate. Linked websites are run by others, and we are not responsible for them.

To the extent the law allows, Design Details is not liable for any indirect or consequential loss, or for any loss from using, or being unable to use, the site, its design files, or the design MCP.

11. Changes

We may update these terms and will change the date above when we do. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the new terms. We may suspend access for anyone who breaks them.

12. Contact
